Impact of Teacher Training on the Use of ICT for Teaching Mathematical Operations in Primary Education: A Review Study

Abstract

In some primary schools, mathematical operations are taught using traditional approaches, where teachers are unable to diversify their teaching resources due to their limited mastery of ICT. This research therefore analyzes the literature to determine how ICT can facilitate innovation in mathematics teaching. A literature review methodology was chosen, using a qualitative and descriptive approach. The results show how the incorporation of ICT can lead to a more extensive understanding of concepts, critical thinking, and autonomous learning. However, the use of ICT depends on the training that teachers receive. Therefore, it is concluded that training is the key to innovating teaching methods in mathematics in primary education, as it helps to bridge the cognitive digital divide, diversify methodologies, improve student learning, and optimize teaching processes.
